A charming house and cottages in a quaint village dating back hundreds of years run by very accommodating staff. The hosts, Cristina and Sonia, are extremely kind, helpful and friendly. ❤️ A generous breakfast is provided, but prospective guests should note that due to the area's remote location, they should arrange to have a car rental to access restaurants and other facilities.

It was the most beautiful, peaceful and relaxing stay at this lovely property! It was so unique to have stayed in a 400 years old cottage/villa that was renovated with everything you needed and more. It was also a museum with artifacts from many years ago, very special!
Not to mention, the AMAZING home made breakfast every day that was served by the most WONDERFUL women, who were always kind, generous and welcoming to all of us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! It would be an honour to return to your home, Bom Dia from my family- the Canadians!

We loved the European style of sharing a large breakfast table with guests at the property. Learning different cultures and about their home countries

Home cooking, fresh baked, vineyards all around.

The other guests were amazing people who assisted us with translations as needed.

The property keepers were an amazing elderly couple who were kind, happy and loving.

It is a small village with stone streets, narrow passages and just so much charm.

We had a 2 bedroom stone house that was updated and an amazing.

Thank you for such a wonderful stay

We got a separate house all for ourselves, in the middle of wineyards. It is a stone building with gallery , very cozy , private and quite, it was amazing! The highlight of our stay was the great hospitality of the owners and their friends. We felt like their family. We enjoyed a wonderful homemade dinner with tasting local wines .

Loved our stay

It felt like we were staying with the kindliest grandparents. The dinner was divine — endless courses of food, good company, and nonstop port and other alcohols that had everyone talking and laughing. A cozy, clean, pleasant home that gives you such an organic and warm sense of Portugal's hospitality.

Beautiful place

We arrived around 8p, after a beautiful day in Douro valley. A nice lady saw us approaching with the car. Took us to the house, we were 4 adults, were given a house, beautiful, 2 bedrooms, 2 bath. The House was decorated beautiful. We had in the living room, cheese bread, salami and wine for dinner. It was great.
The village is on top of a mountain, beautiful view of The Valley in the morning. Fresh air, fruit trees, grapes, and flowers. Breakfast was great, excellent coffee, bread, cheese, meat, eggs, pastries, fruit, and jams. A read feast.
We decided next time we must come for a few days. Excellent place for beauty, and relaxation.

Extremely nice place, very peaceful and relaxing, Wake up to the sounds of birds chirping and can see windmills twirling. Almost can hear the sound of silence. Place was built in the 1700 hundreds kinda stuck in time. But the rooms are really comfortable and renewed. The place doesn't look like a hotel but it is managed by the nicest people you will meet. additionally we met the Luisas cousin Carla she made us feel at home beautiful smile fills the room. for sure worth the trip and the value. Loved it.

A little gem in the Douro Valley.

This is a small family run hotel. We stayed in the main house which is about 300 years old with loads of character. The rooms are clean and well resourced. Breakfasts are fantastic with lots of home cooking.
The hotel offers dinner which again features traditional Portuguese home cooking in substantial quantities, the food at Outros Tempos was the highlight of our three week trip to Portugal. The hotel is near all the main sites of the Douro Valley and the owners have helpful printed trip sheets for the surrounding area.

Wonderful hosts, great food!

Wonderful hosts and fantastic breakfast and (optional) dinner. No services in town, so unless you rent one of their 3 houses/cottage, their dinner is your best option.. but delicious! 7-8 appetizers, large platter of meat plus veggies and salad... 7-8 desserts! Plus aperitif, wine, port and brandy!! Whew!! Our room was small with only a double bed but had a little balcony and resident kitty. The cottage for 2-3 people would be a nice choice as you could have a dinner on your own if you were staying several nights! It is a short ways from the main house and breakfast, but has a patio and nice view. The swimming pool in the picture is not in the main house... it is one of their 2-3 bedroom homes to rent. The property is about 30 minutes down a steep, windy road to the river and the wine-tasting quintas. Very welcoming hosts!

We had booked a room with a balcony which we were pleased we had done so. Wi-fi was not good at first but the owners rectified it by calling an engineer who eventually fixed it. When we arrived it was a Saturday and very full, especially the pool area by Portugese families, but after the weekend it was very quiet. Food and quality of service were very good even when very full. There is not much to see in the village but nearby village of Armamar is very nice with good restaurants and views of hills and vineyards. Overall very good stay and recommend it for 2 or 3 days.

nice setting

We booked this spot at the last minute because we could not get any of the accommodation we wanted in the Duro Valley. It was a unique spot. Fine for 2 people. Our third person slept on a pull out couch that creaked all night and kept us all awake.
We stayed in a small stone cottage ( basic) away from the main house. Our main disappointment was not having any place to eat nearby. We had to get back in the car after a 4 hour drive and find food in the nearby town. We are used to walking once we arrive at a destination.
Breakfast was okay.. nothing special for Portugal.
The lady that took care of us was lovely.

Perfect authentic experience

A true melting pot of cultures. Hosts perfectly accommodating, generous with food wine port and hospitality. English a bit scarce in Douro. Dinners at outros tempos were huge delicious, drunk, and so much fun! Each night added another guest from a different country as the turnover was constant. So interesting, everyone curious and friendly to meet each other. Like a big dinner party with interesting fun loving guests, eating drinking laughing!
Driving is very difficult in Douro. This was stressful!

Rustic charm

We had a one night stay while visiting wineries in the Douro Valley. Kind, helpful hosts. Felt more like a bnb than a hotel. Rustic but clean home in tiny Portuguese village. The breakfast was an amazing spread with lots of home cooked cakes and bread, figs from the garden and way more than i could list and way more than we could eat! The streets n the village are beyond small, so either bring a small car or be prepared for a slightly stressful drive trying to get to the house. English was limited, but the owners could converse easily in Spanish and we're incredibly helpful and attentive.

Please note this is very rural and somewhat rustic, but it's a wonderfully authentic old school B&B. The old village is fun to explore. Great value and cultural experience.

Lovely!

We stayed here during a visit to the Duoro valley and loved it.

Our host/inn-keeper took lots of time to suggest itineraries and routes and restaurants that would maximize our stay.

Our GPS did get a little confused finding our way to the hotel as it is actually in Ariceras (not Armamar). Once we figured that out it was easy to find the road and the signs brought us the rest of the way.
